Cultural diversity in organizations concerns to what extent heterogeneous sub-cultures, which stem from within-organization as well as outside-organization bases, are dispersed in organizations. The greater cultural diversity that is driven by the market-oriented employment system is likely to affect organizational adaptability. Meanwhile, that could become a double-edged sword for organizational performance since it sometimes runs counter to the dominant culture and, as a result, can harm the organizational efficiency that is generated by a strong, single culture, or dominant culture.}, pages = {1--13}, title = {Cultural Diversity in Organizations, and its Antecedents and Consequences}, volume = {33}, year = {2009} }
